I am glad you are such a good friend.Sharing milk with another would require testing to be sure you did not have any adverse condition which would make it unsafe for the baby.You would need HIV testing prior to this experience.If you are taking medications ,these could affect the baby .I am a Nurse practitioner ,certainly not a psychology person,but is it possible that you are wanting a baby yourself? Just asking. Besides donating milk ,there sre so many other ways you can help your friend such as listening,getting up with the baby so she can sleep and watching the baby so she can take a nice bath or shower.Since all you asked about was donating milk ,I am referring you to a phone number of the LA LECHE LEAGUE.It is 1 800 la leche .I recommend them to my patients.JoAnn NP
